U-boat active sonar (S-gerat/Nibelung), can't be detected either in SH5 by enemy ships. But this device was hardly used on type VII u-boats.

On the contrary, the echolot (the device used for measuring the depth under the keel), will give up u-boat's position in any enemy naval unit is in range.

Anyway I think MCM was asking how close an enemy destroyer must be in order to detect our boat's depth with her own ASDIC.
